FootballBetExpert prediction:

Lazio will play with their best team and will attack from the first minute. However, if Steaua Bucharest will repeat the good game played in Bucharest by defending deep and be organised then will have very big chance to score with a devastating counter-attack.  In this case Lazio will need to score 3 goals if they want to qualify which will be hard. They have experienced players like Budescu which can make the difference but also they have a very young goalkeeper Andrei Vlad (only 18 years old) without experience in European matches.
